Domestic goddess
Well, I'm trying to be a bit better with food these days .... when Y cooks he always makes stuff from scratch, whereas I've historically been quite a consumer of pre-prepared food. Nowadays I'm trying to eat a bit healthier, eg: organic food, no E-numbers, etc etc, so I thought that if I'm going to start getting fussy in my old age I should really try making the stuff myself sometimes.
One of my first attempts is to make muffins at home rather than buying them in the supermarket, as even the more expensive 'quality' muffins have preservatives and stuff in them. So, here is a picture of my first attempt, some choc-chip vanilla muffins I made a couple of weeks ago. They were slightly over-cooked, so they were a bit harder than I would I have liked, but they were still tasty, and I'm about to try another recipe this evening. Fingers crossed!

Another year ....
Gosh. 31. Doesn't time fly?! I know I'm getting older because I'm getting fatter. I'm hoping that a Wii Fit will miraculously solve that, and return me to my previous slender form .... We shall see!
